Abstract (en)
The internal combustion engine fuel rail assembly comprises a main fuel tube comprising multiple sockets at spaced apart locations along its length, fuel injectors inserted fluid-tight in certain of the sockets, a first component inserted fluid-tight in a first of the multiple sockets and a second component inserted fluid-tight in a second of the multiple sockets proximate the first socket. The first socket and the second socket each comprise a corresponding wall, and retainer clips for retaining the first and second components fluid-tight in their respective sockets by preventing their extraction from their respective sockets. One of the walls contains a corresponding through-opening, and the retainer clips comprise a bracket having an intermediate portion and end portions at respective ends of the intermediate portion. One of the bracket end portions passes through the through-opening and into an interference relationship with the particular component inserted into the particular one of the first and second sockets whose wall contains the through-opening so as to prevent withdrawal of the particular component from the particular socket.
